Science Building CourtyardThe Department of Computer Science is committed to maintaining our curriculum on the forefront of technology. As a major in computer science at Millersville, you will be exposed to state-of-the-art equipment , theory, and concepts. Our faculty of highly motivated and knowledgeable professors will guide you through the courses and prepare you to join one of the most exciting and innovative professions.

Because we do not have a graduate degree program, advanced projects are integrated into the curriculum and are focused on the undergraduate student. Almost all graduate school bound Computer Science majors engage in an advanced project at some level during their years at Millersville. Our graduates have gone to graduate school and earned Ph.D. and M.S. degrees in Computer Science at quality Universities nationwide.

As you look over the curriculum, you may have questions such as: What courses will best serve me and my career goals? Which ones am I ready to take? When are they offered? What are the courses actually like? How many computer science courses should I take a semester? To help you answer these questions you will be assigned a faculty advisor. Your advisor can help you plan a program of study tailored to fulfill your needs and interests, while meeting all of the various university requirements. Your advisor will keep you informed of all university and departmental regulations. You will need your advisor's signature on your registration card each semester, on cards for dropping or adding courses, and on your application for graduation. In addition to seeing your advisor each semester to plan your next semester's courses, you should visit your advisor from time to time, whenever you have any questions about academic policies or are considering any change of plans. However, you are responsible for making certain all requirements have been met.
